We got married on October 31st, 2020, and while planning a wedding that year was full of ups and downs and confusions for a multitude of other reasons, All Occasions was a beacon of reliability and clear communication that we were very grateful for. Everything tasted great, many of my guests complimented the meal, and I really love how the table décor looked. As our wedding was Halloween themed, I invited the staff to dress up, and I was happy to see that they did and also had a good time. Friendly, Skilled, and Flexible, I would absolutely recommend All Occasions Catering to anyone planning an event or wedding. My wedding reception was one of the best nights of my life, and I am thankful for the role they played in it.

I got married here on 9.29.24 and cannot say enough good things about Arlington Acres! From the initial inquiry, tour, all the way until the wedding day, Sarah was so helpful in making my wedding dreams come true. She was always so quick to respond to my million emails and so willing to help give feedback when I was questioning certain decisions. It ended up raining on our wedding day, which wasn’t ideal, but even with the rain, our wedding was PERFECT. The venue is gorgeous, there is so much room to really make the event unique and personable to you, and we loved that we were able to choose all of our own vendors. I can’t even tell you how many of our guests came up and told us how gorgeous the venue was. My husband and I would recommend this venue a million times over. If you are considering it, book your date now!! You absolutely will not regret it. Thanks Sarah and family for everything!!

From the moment we visited Buss Farms, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. The venue is absolutely stunning and everything we wanted. What truly makes it special are the owners, Stephanie and Matt. They are the kindest people we’ve ever met and made us feel like family from the very beginning. You can truly feel how much they love and care for each of their couples. One of the most memorable moments of our day was having Stephanie and Matt stand with me and open the barn doors into the ceremony. It was such a meaningful and emotional moment that I’ll never forget. Their presence throughout the day made everything feel so personal and heartfelt. It’s also amazing to see their kids around the farm, helping and being part of it all—it really adds to the family-run feel and makes the whole experience so warm and genuine. They can be as involved or not as involved as you'd like, but their love and care are always there. Stephanie helped me immensely when it came to planning and providing resources for different companies. Stephanie and Matt made the planning process smooth and stress-free. They were responsive, supportive, and went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Buss Farms isn’t just a beautiful venue—it’s a place filled with heart and so much faith. We’re so thankful we chose them on our big day!

I am still on cloud nine from the most beautiful and perfect day! It was everything I hoped for, and more! Honestly, the indoor ceremony turned out SO beautiful and was handled so seamlessly that I’m not even disappointed about the weather now! We truly cannot thank you and all of the staff at Scioto Reserve enough! You have been amazing throughout the entire process, and made the planning process so smooth. We couldn’t have done it without all of your advice and guidance. There really isn’t one thing that went wrong on wedding day, or if there was, everyone was so on top of things that it never even made it back to me. THANK YOU to everyone for being so kind and accommodating on Saturday! There wasn’t once thing I asked for that wasn’t handled immediately and with positivity. The room flip process was so impressive and efficient! We truly could not have chosen a better venue for our wedding, and we wish we could relive the day! I hope you know how much we appreciate you, and please share our gratitude with the rest of your staff! Beautiful day at a beautiful venue!
